The Quadshift® III 12x4 mechanical transmission is standard. This transmission is equipped with 3 speed ranges. Each range has 4 synchronized speeds with smooth shifting. Gear ratios are selected to provide flexibility and maximum performance in the critical range of 4.8 to 16 km/h.

The key benefits of a mechani al transmission are simple design, reliability, manual control in all modes of travel. A high torque is transmitted by the mechanical transmission to the tractor wheels without slip losses thanks to the rigid connection between the engine and the wheels, while maintaining a high fuel efficie y.

The fuel consumption can also be reduced due to the tractor operation at a low speed, with the engine and the transmission operating under a low load. It usually occurs when the tillage or seeding equipment attached has a knowingly narrower cutting width than necessary for the best tractor loading. The tractor provides the best fuel efficie y at engine speeds between 1,600 and 1,900 rpm.

Traditionally, the design of the most robust axles starts with the installation of planet and sun gears in the final drives to which the wheels are attached.

These planetary drives transfer all available power via a large high-precision sun gear. The planetary hubs are suspended on the large bearings attached directly to the axle beam. The entire weight is supported by the axle beam, rather than the drive components.

Tractors series Rostselmash 2000 are equipped with heavy-duty final drives that transfer all power to the drawbar efficiently.

The differential lock for the front and rear axles comes as standard. Using its properties correctly increases the flo tation of machinery in difficult conditions considerably.

RSM Series 2000 tractors have the maximum performance if they use dual wheels. You will benefit from increased grip, better traction performance in muddy conditions, twice as low a ground pressure as with single wheels, and all this has a good effect on the performance and fuel consumption. The tractor with dual wheels will not harm the soil, which will pay back in an increasingly more uniform crop emergence from season to season.

Dual wheels are a standard accessory of RSM Series 2000 tractors. You can choose from the versions with narrow duals and with wide duals 710/70R38 (710mm tread).

The Closed Center Load Sensing Hydraulic System ensures efficient operation of seeding and tillage implements, producing a maximum hydraulic flow of up to 260 L/min. When there is no demand, the system operates in an economical low-pressure mode, building up a reserve to transmit all power to the drawbar. Such capacity is enough to handle the most demanding seeding systems with multiple hydraulic-operated units (two fans, hydraulic down-pressure system for openers or tools, etc.).

The hydraulic system control rockers are conveniently located. The standard equipment includes five electrohydraulic control valves operated remotely from the tractor cab. All the valves have four modes: raise, lower, neutral, float. Control rockers and remote clutches have unified colour coding and make it easy to control the operation of the implements.

The Closed Center Load Sensing Hydraulic System with variable capacity depending on the load, provides adjustment and pressure delivery as needed. When high pressure is not needed, the system switches to low pressure mode, creating energy reserves and saving fuel. Separate steering circuit provides a stable pressure supply without compromising the performance of the implement hydraulics.

1” high flow couplers set and case drain coupler come as standard and will suffice for hooking up most of air seeders.

The Power Beyond kit (option) is required for ensuring normal operation of certain sowing systems (for example, systems equipped with hydraulic-actuated seed-sowing device of the grain tank or automatic steering wheels of the seeder). Power Beyond function delivers maximum hydraulic flow from the hydraulic pump to the seeder by-passing the hydraulic control valve. It includes two 1-inch couplings and a coupling for LS line.

The tractor drawbar with a maximum capacity of 2,722 kg and a 51mm pin (CAT IV) maximizes efficie y of operation with trailed implements. The drawbar attachment point located close to the tractor’s centre of gravity provides the best distribution of axle load, 50/50. This offers an appreciable saving of fuel.

The rear 3-pt hitch is an option that can be installed at the factory or by a dealer.

This is an electrohydraulic system with an electronic position control feature (EHR) that is required to maintain the working depth of implements.

The hitch is designed to accept the implements of Category IVN (by default) and III. Load carrying capacity at 610 mm behind the suspension axis of lower lift links is 5 897 kg.

The Quick Hitch face plate makes it much easier to attach and detach implements. With this hitch, the operator can back up the tractor, put the hitch hooks under the implement, raise the hitch, attach the implement without leaving the cab.

The capacity of the two fuel tanks is 927 liters, which ensures uninterrupted operation during one shift. The tanks are the same size and are connected to each other by a special spigot. Conveniently located filler necks are available on both sides, which means that refueling is possible from either side.

The fuel tanks are centrally located in the tractor, which creates an equal weight distribution on the front/rear axle regardless of the fullness of the tanks.

The side cab post has room for a GPS-receiver, seeding system display, and other systems for operating trailed implements.

For maximum convenience of operation, the steering column can be adjusted by height and tilt.

Air flow from the air conditioner or heater is adjusted by eleven vents on the top and bottom of the cab, allowing an effici t temperature control in the cab.

The sensors, instrument panel and switches are easy to read because of clear marking, are located conveniently and along the operator’s line of sight. This al-lows changing the controls quickly, without taking the eyes off the fie.

THE MOST USED TRACTOR FUNCTIONS CAN BE CONTROLLED BY THE KEYS ON THE SIDE PANEL:

1. Selecting an exterior lighting type
2. Cruise control activation
3. Ground speed changing
4. Automatic header lifting/lowering mode
5. Manual hitch lifting/lowering mode
6. Implement hydraulic system activation
7. Differential lock switching on/off
8. Auto-steering system switching (option)

The automatic constant ground speed system maintains a preset value of engine speed. This function allows operating at an optimum engine speed, irrespective of the position of the throttle control lever.

Comfortable machine operator seat is fully adjusted by the air suspension, has 8 positions, a proper support for the lumbar spine, the adjustment of the degree of shock absorption, and the adjustable armrests.

The seat has air suspension. The central position provides a 360-degree field o vision to monitor the operation of wide machinery.

Flowrate for all four hydraulic distributor sections (up to 104 l/min per section) can be adjusted directly from the tractor cab.

The following functions for the rear 3-point hitch can be set:

• manual lifting/lowering mode;
• hitch position locking (“0” is the float position);
• hitch lowering speed;
• automatic lifting/lowering mode (for convenience, the switches are located close to the accelerator lever);

RSM tractors can be optionally fited with a GPS/GLONASS automatic guidance system. Autocontrol system will improve the tractor performance by 10% by minimising gaps and overlaps during tillage operations, and eliminate the risk of dense planting when seeding systems are used.

The tractor is compatible with both an electric autosteer and a more precise steering system via a hydraulic valve.

All RSM Series 2000 tractors are supplied with the proprietary RSM Agrotronic remote satellite monitoring system onboard (the system includes fuel level sensors, a GPS tracker).

Two coarse fuel filters are part of the basic equipment of Rostselmash tractors.

When the engine is running, they separate water and solid impurities that may be in the fuel system, and thus provide reliable protection of the engine from destruction of the diesel equipment and the appearance of dirt. It is possible to drain the liquid from the coarse fuel filter by opening the small tap on the bottom of the filter.
